Are these people asking for “big government’s” aid? 🤔
Who remembers, …
"Puerto Rico You're in a Mess Created by You" – Donald Trump: Hurricane Maria 2017
Hi from Virginia Beach!!⛱
🙏🏾🙏🏾
I currently have no power but we have a generator. I only have internet on my phone. I am in Cape Coral, Florida
Omg my heart goes out to that couple
2:13..I'm STUNNED nbc news showed that guy
using God's name as a curse word…I will never watch nbc news again
When u bus & fly out migrants who are trying to be safe & give to owr country the best they can offer, Karma seems to step in just in time… now DeSantis your people are going to pay because of your inhumanity. Praying 🙏 for All those affected by Karma's wrath…let's see where your people will have to go…
Does anybody remember Andrew? Katrina? Many folks impacted by Katrina were very poor.They couldn't rebuild. These Naples people can at least afford to put their lives back together. . Andrew's devastation far exceeded Ian. The difference was that the wind and micro bursts were much more severe. There wasn't the flooding. Damage was more widespread. Florida folks have to accept hurricanes are a fact of life. P..S. Florida gets tornadoes as well. What's the fascination? Beats me. P.S. Florida has Cockroaches you could play polo on. They call them "palmetto bugs" Hah. Just big f'in roaches. I can just imagine all the dead "palmetto bugs" floating around in your skivvies drawer. Yuk.

Being from Florida this really breaks my heart. To see sunny Florida destroyed like this. But I feel immensely proud of Florida, and how these communities worked together💕 May the Lord protect, bless, defend, and watch over them. I pray their hearts feel God’s love and comfort, and that they are not alone. Signs of the times, we have to also save our souls. Christ is coming soon.
My heart goes out to you all omg cant belive
🐾🐦🐤🐀🐖🐄🐈🐕🐗🐓🐟🐛🐞🐌🐝 So far it seems more property damages than loss of human life. People were prepared and will get plenty of help. I'm much more concerned about the destruction of animals, farmed, pet, wildlife, and their environment 😔
My heart goes out to the guy in the hospital bed and his wife , Prayers for south west Florida 🙏
You should pray to God he kept you alive!!
What's all the drilling?
divine punishment
The silver lining in this disaster is that it further solidifies Gov DeSantis’ ability to lead the people of Florida, and soon all of America 🇺🇸
Nice piece Kerry. Heart breaking. Always consider what others are dealing with. THX. 💜
Nice job S.R.
HURRICANE IAN – 2022 $ ?
Hurricane Ian hit like an atom bomb
Consuming the helpless in it's path.
The waters of the deep surged forth
Flooding everything with it's wrath.
The best of the brave was seen by man
While rescue crews were helping others.
They risked their life and laid it on the line
To save our sisters and brothers.
May heaven show mercy upon the lost
Never to love, laugh, sing or cry
God bless every man, woman and child
Who before their time had to die.
Tears are the raindrops of the soul
Shed by all who cry
Though the eyes are wet and swollen
With time and patience they dry.

Omg that poor lady and her husband ☹️
As the world copes with effects of climate change and ocean temps rising…..these storms and huge hurricanes 🌀 will only become more numerous 🌴🌴🌴
